Hopefully I am wording all of this correctly. We have a web service protected by Siteminder. We have token services which I can successfully retrieve a site cookie for. I've then tried supplying this cookie by setting a header of "Cookie" with a value of "SMSESSION=" the cookie I got from our token service. Its not working for me. When the REST server is set to default or always follow redirects I get errors of too many redirects or circular redirects. When I set it to not follow any redirects it seems those errors stop.
The web service is http only. I'm supplying a base64 encoded user/pass and that seems to get me past the first level of protection but then I don't seem to get much further. When my request includes the cookie I got from siteminder I get a 302 page has moved error I think. In the header of the response I see another siteminder cookie. If I try my request again with that cookie from the header I get some message about the user being denied. I'm wondering if I'm setting the header correctly or missing some other piece. I'm just doing simple gets. I can hit the pages I'm trying to get directly from a web browser so I know I have access if everything gets passed through correctly. Hoping someone out there has done this successfully with vRO.
